As long as the deposit shows on the bill of sale, who cares the source.

Since made in advance at their/TH's custom rate, I'd say it leaves the officials here with no room to charge extra. Read a few reviews, stating they got refunds on the custom's charge.

Thinking about buying a used car in Thailand
KhunLA replied to SiSePuede419's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
1 anonymous person, in an Op-Ed (opinion piece) mentioning anonymous online people, and if this forum is any indication of them ... nuff said Is every car coming off the line going to be perfect, from any manufacturer ? That's why they have warranties .... Have a nice day. I'll take the word of the AN members owning, and is quite happy with it. As I am with my MG EV. -

It was just lowered to 1 million recently. Wife was told per bank, not account, at bank, though not sure how true that is. Yea ... she moved a bit around, and now at different banks ???? Apparently true: "Thai Baht Deposits are protected under the Deposit Protection Agency Act up to a maximum of one million baht per one depositor per financial institution." -
Spec'd about the same as 2022. Not sure about any added tech. hmm...

Don't know, or want to know, just give a wide berth.

Help understanding power generation and usage
KhunLA replied to statman78's topic in Alternative/Renewable Energy Forum
That doesn't sound right at all. As suggested, ring up your installer to check over things. When things are running consistent A$$ backwards, make a short vid of you inverter screen & meter running backwards. So he believes you know what your suggesting ???? -

Harsh ... reality is 60-80% can't rustle up money in an emergency. You have people working till 65, 70 yrs old, not by choice, retire & krap out. A little, very little, financial planning would avoid that. Two simplest thing, no thinking needed: ... stop buying krap you don't need for show ... Invest all spare money, into paying off your mortgage, every thing extra you pay, gives you a ~50% return, on them silly 30 yr mortgages people love???? Best -0- risk investment you'll ever get. Before some asks - $100k mortgage w/$300 additional monthly payment, on a 30 yr / 3% mortgage. Not only do you save interest, build equity 15 yrs earlier.: This is not rocket science people, just common sense. Instead of paying $300 on the CC for krap you don't need, for show, put it towards your mortgage, or anything you have extra. ~ 50% return on whatever extra you pay. Play with the #s if you don't believe me. No charge for financial consultation ???? https://www.mortgagecalculator.org/calculators/what-if-i-pay-more-calculator.php#top Do you really need a new car every 3 yrs, and hope you paid cash for ... you didn't ... IDIOT Get rid of interest payments and you'll build equity and retire early, with spare coin in the pocket ... every month. -
Also Xiaomi & POCO (Xiaomi) fan. Oppo A91 ... 3 yr old tech, but seems ample enough. Certainly inexpensive enough. As long as you don't need any apps on current Android. Or it may even come with current upgrade.

What Is Your Favorite Bank...
KhunLA replied to AcuDoc's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Someone's brilliant idea was to close the mall branch, which had 2 efficient cashiers, and quick service. Now only main branch in town, with only 2 cashiers, if lucky. Thankfully, full window in front, so can peek while driving by, and pick when to go in, for 10 minutes wait while 3 people are processed in front of me. -
What Is Your Favorite Bank...

They want to charge, for me, to use my money. I prefer not to pay people to use my money for their profit. ATM charge just to have ... charge & fees if used outside province Same with dep/withdrawal, if outside province. Don't know where y'all come from, but my previous & current USA financial institution was, is free. Used Credit Union for salary deposit & access to (free) and Brokerage firm for anything else. CC & debit card, free & no fees. I use Brokerage debit card here, no fee from my bank, and no Thai fee (220 baht). Banks should pay you, to use your money, or at least, not charge you. BkkBank gets my monthly DD, then every few months, I withdrawal it, to stay below the $10k USD ceiling, to avoid filing FBAR. I don't even have there debit card for the account. -

Hate all banks and never had an account at one until coming to Thailand ???? Have BkkBank now here, only because of USA Soc Sec DD. Thanachart wasn't bad in the past, though wife doesn't care for it now, since merger. Have had KrungThai, CIMB, UOB also in the past, and all about the same, terrible. -
That's just plain ugly, and needs constant opening/closing & cleaning. Same with horizonal indoor venetian blinds. Agree, sun sometimes not taken into consideration, though when thinking a bit, position of house, rooms and extended roofing provides more than enough shade control the heat. Use of different building materials, maybe a bit more expensive, but pay for themselves in a short period.
